"Great company to work with! They were extremely responsive, professional, and reliable from start to finish. I had a smaller excavation project in a partial area, and they treated it with the same attention and professionalism you’d expect on a much larger job. Everything was completed without delays, and communication was excellent throughout the process. If you’re looking for an excavation company you can count on, whether your project is big or small, I definitely recommend giving them a call!"

"Jeff and Corey accomplished all requests, despite the difficulty of old post removal despite heavy roots, rock retaining wall, poured concrete patio, and garage foundation. Both are very personable and easy to communicate with. Extremely pleased with the end result."

"This company is the only one that showed up to look at the work I needed done in person. Had 4 acres I needed cleared and graded, not only did they do the work but they also showed me a couple other things they could do to really get the most out of my property! I will definitely use them again for future work now that I know that they can run my water and sewage lines for my new house.. Thanks Chad!!"

"A2B Contracting did an excellent job with my bathroom remodeling. They had their bid to me timely and when I committed to them, they began working on the job the next day. They were always communicating things with me along the way and answered all my questions. Love the work they did! Would highly recommend them for any home improvements!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Above ground pools are not buried in the ground. Typically, above ground pools are semi-permanent. One reason they’re more affordable is that you don’t have to dig for an inground pool and pour concrete or another material. However, you can choose to install a semi inground pool, which is a hybrid between the two.

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.

The digging depth will depend on the size of the trencher you use. Even smaller units can dig up to 4 feet deep, which is plenty for a DIY job. However, much larger trenchers can reach a depth of 18 feet and are better used by a team of pro contractors, not a single DIYer. As with all home improvement projects, use the right tool for the job and proceed with caution.

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.

The rules for trenching and excavation include setting up and following safety protocols, learning how to use tools and machines properly, and ensuring there is a safe exit for all workers. Keep heavy equipment and materials away from the edge of the hole or trench. Call the 811 dig line before starting any excavation or trenching project to ensure you don’t hit any electrical or gas lines.
